The Double Cut, in detail.

A bolt-on double-cutaway travel guitar with a rosewood or ziricote fingerboard. The body is milled from a single selected board; the fingerboard and fret slots are CNC-cut for precise intonation. The pickups are professionally hand-wound to order, and a three-way switch moves between the bridge humbucker, the neck single-coil, and both together. Aged-brass hardware made on five-axis CNC in our workshop. Perfectly balanced on a strap.
